Enjoyable but one bad bedroom

In general, we enjoyed our stay at the house and our time in Deep Creek. However, I sent a message on Friday night about how we arrived at the house and saw that one of the bedrooms downstairs had a wet carpet and areas were moldy. The carpet throughout the weekend became more and more sopping wet. You could not place anything on the floor and had to wear shoes in there. The house more than likely has a foundation wall that is leaking. I called Railey on Saturday morning and the nice person I spoke with said he could put a work order in to have someone come out and inspect things, bring in equipment to dry the carpet, etc but that would have been even more disruptive during our short stay there. This was disappointing and I felt awful for the guests staying in that room.

Beautiful Property

While some aspects of the property need some upkeep (blinds, some dining chairs, etc), the house was homey, had plenty of amenities and a stunning view. Highly recommend.

Great family vacation

Best family vacation ever. The house was really nice. Very child friendly from baby gate to swings and a small zip line. We all loved how close it was to the lake with the dock and little cove for the children to play in with their toys. Would love, and highly recommend renting again next year.

Somewhat dated

While the location of the property was fantastic, the weather was less than cooperative. Unfortunately, it appeared that the house was somewhat dated and in need of maintenance and upkeep/updating. Perhaps this is due to the house being a rental property versus someone's vacation home/rental. We did find the endless array of "notes" everywhere somewhat disturbing but yet a further indication of it being a rental property and not someone's home. The upside was the indoor pool which the grandkids made full use of considering the weather outside. One thing that I found particularly disturbing and somewhat dangerous was the outdoor gas grill. It has some SERIOUS burner issues that should be attended to immediately, or replace the grill entirely. Additionally, it was clearly obvious that previous tenants did not make any attempts at cleaning after use. I did my best but to no avail. I could see that the owners have tried to provide everything possible for a fun stay for their guests but the photos, while trying not to be rhetorical, are somewhat "dated" as is this home.
